AFG vs SA Live Cricket Score

3 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Fazalhaq Farooqi draws first blood! The change of angles works for Afghanistan and Reeza Hendricks' struggles continue in the middle. This one is on a good length and outside off as well, a tempter, Reeza Hendricks stays in his crease and tries to push at it without any footwork, gets a big inside edge and the ball crashes onto the stumps. It was really a nothing shot and South Africa lose their first. 17/1

6.2 OUT! TAKEN! Who else? It is Fazalhaq Farooqi once again! Tony de Zorzi was finding it difficult to get into this game and he has to go back to the hut as well. This is a clever change of length from Farooqi, he bangs this one into the pitch, on off, skids through a bit, Tony de Zorzi looks to go for the pull shot, but the ball gets big on him, takes the top edge and goes high in the air, Hashmatullah Shahidi at mid on settles under it and takes a fine catch. Tony de Zorzi falls for 11 off 18! 25/3

5 OUT! DRAGGED ON AGAIN! Fazalhaq Farooqi with the double blow for Afghanistan! This time he gets the big fish, Aiden Markram, who falls cheaply as well. Good set up from Farooqi angling it in on the previous balls, but this time he goes full and outside off, takes pace off as well, Aiden Markram looks to take it on and goes for the big booming drive, but goes through it a bit early and tries to adjust bloy closing his bat face, ends up getting an inside edge back onto his stumps. Afghanistan's start gets even better now as South Africa are two down now! 24/2

7.1 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! A deserved wicket for AM Ghazanfar now! He brings out the carrom ball this time, full and on off, turns away a shy bit, Tristan Stubbs gets drawn forward into his defensive push, gets a thin outside edge, it deflects off the keeper's pads, but Mohammad Nabi shows great reflexes at first slip to take a sharp catch low to his front. Stubbs walks back for a duck. Things are going from bad to worse for South Africa! 29/4

9.2 OUT! LBW AM Ghazanfar has three or does he? YES, HE DOES. The umpire raises his finger but Kyle Verreynne takes a review here. This is the arm-ball from the mystery spinner, full and on middle, goes in with the arm, Kyle Verreynne stays back and plays across the line to work it away but misses it completely to get hit on the back pad. UltraEdge takes a long time to come up but confirms there is no bat involved. Ball Tracking shows two reds and wickets is umpire's call. The on-field call remains. South Africa keep the review but lose their sixth wicket. It is 36/6 now! 36/6

8 OUT! BOWLED'EM! AM Ghazanfar with the double whammy! Jason Smith goes back for a duck on debut. This is pushed through quicker, shortish and on off, grips and turns in sharply, Jason Smith stays back in his crease and looks to cut it away, but fails to read the spin and plays all over it as the ball goes through to rattle the stumps. A double-wicket maiden for AM Ghazanfar and South Africa lose half their side now! 29/5

32.2 OUT! CASTLED! Fazalhaq Farooqi removes the last hope for South Africa! He hits the length hard this time, gets it to nip back in sharply, Wiaan Mulder stays back in his crease to block it out, but gets cut in half, and before he can do anything the ball goes between the gap of bat and pad to shatter the stumps. Mulder goes back after a fighting half-century and South Africa are 105/9! 105/9

10 OUT! RUN OUT! Another one bites the dust! You can say great presence of mind by Gulbadin Naib but some might say against the spirit of play. AM Ghazanfar flights this one up, full and on middle, Andile Phehlukwayo looks to defend it but misses, the ball goes off his pads to the first slip. There is a huge shout for LBW, but the umpire says no. Andile Phehlukwayo has no idea where the ball is and takes a couple of steps out of his crease, Naib sees this and hits the stumps at the batter's end. The umpires send it upstairs and the replay shows the batter is out of his crease. Andile Phehlukwayo is not happy with the decision but he has to keep walking back here. 36/7

23.2 OUT! TIMBER! Rashid Khan finds his rhythm after 5 overs and now breaks this partnership which had started to frustrate Afghanistan. A googly once again this time, but this one rattles the sticks. This one lands outside off and turns in sharply. Bjorn Fortuin tries to push it away but gets undone by this one. South Africa lose their eighth wicket. 75/8

33.3 OUT! LBW! Rashid Khan picks up his second wicket. South Africa have been bundled out for 106 runs here. Rashid Khan comes from 'over the wicket pitches it on off and middle. It is an arm ball and Lungi Ngidi has no clue about it. Ngidi looks to nudge it but gets beaten on the inner edge and wears on the pad. The Afghans appeal hard and this time the umpire raises his finger. Lungi Ngidi opts for a review. UltraEdge shows no bat involvement and the Ball Tracking pops up as three reds. 106/10

0.3 OUT! TAKEN! Lungi Ngidi opens his account in just three deliveries! This is short of a length just outside off. Rahmanullah Gurbaz has a wild swipe across the line, but the movement away takes the outer edge and the ball balloons towards third man. It is the debutant, Jason Smith, who adjusts himself under the skier and gets the catch safe into his hands. Afghanistan lost their first one! 0/1

13.4 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Bjorn Fortuin strikes again! South Africa are not going anywhere without a fight here. Tossed up, full and around middle, Riaz Hassan skips down the track and tries to slog it across the line, but loses his shape and yorks himself as well, the ball goes through to rattle the stumps. A rush of blood and his innings is cut short at 16 off 35 balls. Afghanistan three down now! 38/3

8 OUT! LBW! Bjorn Fortuin gets his first wicket in his very first over. This is tossed up, full and on middle. It is dipping as well. Shah gets low and tries to sweep it away but misses it completely. The ball sneaks through and pings him on his back leg. Bjorn Fortuin and company put in a loud appeal. The umpire raises his finger after a slight delay, which leads Shah to take the review. The Ball Tracking shows three reds and Rahmat Shah is a goner here. 15/2

18 OUT! LBW! Aiden Markram with a huge wicket here. Hashmatullah Shahidi is unconvinced a little and takes the review. This is flatter one, around middle. Hashmatullah Shahidi looks to defend it away but misses and takes a blow on his knee roll. The on-field decision is out. Hashmatullah Shahidi takes the review but the Ball Tracking shows three reds and he is a goner. Afghanistan lose their fourth wicket and still needs 47 runs. 60/4
